Guide to Hill Climb Racing for iOS: Tips, tricks, hints, cheats and strategies

Hill Climb Racing, also known simply as Hill Climb, is a game for the iPhone and other iOS devices in which you drive a four wheel drive vehicle in a side scrolling view, trying to go as far as you can and collect coins. It’s an endless driving game, but not auto-driving, as you control the acceleration and the brake, both of which you must use to navigate some of the nastier hills in the game. Read on for some tips and tricks for Hill Climb Racing!

When you first play the game, since you will have absolutely no upgrades to anything, instead of keeping the accelerator pressed down constantly, you should try to keep the RPMs around the third dash, by pressing the acceleration button over and over. Work the button, and the truck will be less likely to flip over on the hills than it would be if you just held it down.

Do this until you start upgrading. Upgrade the tires, suspension and the 4wd before you upgrade the engine – in fact, leave the engine at level 1 or so until everything else is around level 3 or even 4 if you are patient enough. This will multiply the effects of better tires and suspension on your car, since a faster engine is more likely to flip you over.

Hitting the accelerator button while in mid air will cause the nose of your car to go up, and hitting the brake button while in mid air will cause the nose to go down. Try to point the nose of your car so that you are level with the surface that you are about to land on when you jump. However, keep your speed high enough that you will be able to get up the next hill.

On the first level, the countryside, an easy way to make coins quickly is to hit the accelerator until you hit the first bridge. Then, slam the brake right as you hit the bridge and you’ll go airborne. Hold the brake to do a front flip, or a neck flip depending on how upgraded you are. A neck flip will kill you instantly but you will earn 2,500 coins from it.
